🎉 I welcome Anna, from the Wanderlust Haaks, who, alongside her husband, left a demanding career in healthcare to “buy back time” with their two young children. She shares their incredible gap year, detailing how they were able to save $100k to get started. 

🌎 Along their journey, they pivoted from the Americas to Asia in pursuit of a more budget-friendly adventure. This episode is full of advice on traveling with littles ones and honest look at what it takes to trade burnout for a life of exploration. 

✨ IN THIS EPISODE:

  • Their plan to save up $100k and how they used travel points to fund their travels
  • What a real-life month in Vietnam costs and how to balance budget with family fun
  • The simple and effective approach to "roadschooling" with children under five by using real-world sights as a launchpad for learning 
  • Honest insights into long-term travel, from navigating new cities every month to dealing with unexpected hospital visits in foreign countries
